MySQL master-slave replication is well covered so I won’t go deep into explanations and details. This supposes to be a simple how-to tutorial. However, I’m going to pinpoint a few details that might lead you astray while doing this easy setup.

When you enter the field of multiple MySQL instances on one physical server you might run into the trouble. Lack of documentation, cryptic bugs, and insane settings is something you need to get used to. I almost quit a few times in the process and only my habit of trying unusual things when everything logical failed kept me up to the solution.
